My boyfriend recently purchased a Lawn Boy 10645 lawn mower. The one we have is a lime green color. We are from Keyser, West Virginia, but I think the lawn mower was actually purchased offline, in Maryland. We have a small, but very thick lawn. Our home is right beside a small creek, so it grows very fast!
All of the other lawn mowers we had previously did not work too well on our grass. They would almost shut off or lose power during mowing. This mower has different height settings which is helpful in the different sections of the yard. It is very helpful around the swingset and where there are thicker sections of grass or weeds.
One problem with the Lawn Boy 10645 is the grass bag. I'm not sure if it is not aligned right or is just off, but the grass does not seem to fully go into this bag. We've had this mower since last summer and we used it all summer long and even into fall, until the leaves dropped.
This mower is pretty light, so it is easy to push. I am a 25 year old female and I have not got a problem pushing it through our yard. Some of the pieces on it seem a little on the flimsy side. They are made of a cheaper feeling plastic, but nothing has broken on the mower so far. I would say this mower is perfect for smaller to medium sized yards. I would not want to do a large yard with it since the bag is so small. You would probably have to empty it quite alot. Overall I would definately recommend the Lawn Boy 10645
